REVIEW: |
This new release
is an anthology of Taylor s performances in 2012 mostly with the Ben Waters
Band on its German tour in late January; it starts with two songs from Mettmann
whose video and audio quality are pretty good, Taylor is on slide guitar for
Little Queenie. Then there is a medley of songs (You Don t Love Me, Baby-Shake
Your Hips-Boogie Chillen) from Esslingen
that seems to have been recorded from a cell.phone with the audio part better
than the video. Two more songs come from the concert in Dessau and these are
recorded like the other ones from the audience but certainly in very good video
and audio quality, unfortunately Route 66 is cut at the end: Taylor s playing
is really good here. After there are three songs from York, England and this
time is Taylor s band which consists of Michael Bailey on bass, Jeff Allen on
drums, Ronnie Johnson on second guitar and Zoot Money (Zombies) on keyboards:
this footage too is excellent, the best of the lot, too bad the whole show
doesn t circulate; here again one song, Goin South, is cut after 7.29 minutes
and then there is the encore No Expectations. The song from the Iridium Jazz
Club in New York comes from one concert where Bernard Purdie played the drums
and this happened only from 9 through 11 May as he later was replaced by Jeff
Allen; however Taylor says at the end: This is the first of our 6 nights, so it
must come from the 9th May concert, either from the 1st
or 2nd set. The song is a short (final) excerpt from Fed Up With The
Blues where Taylor plays Freddie King s Tore Down. Next is the private film of
the backstage meeting with Ron Wood from the Bospop Festival in Holland from 2011 after
the Faces concert which lasts just 1.16 minutes. As a final bonus the audio of
Coming Together a song written and played by Ron Wood with Taylor and Kelly
Jones from Stereophonics that was included in the soundtrack of the latest CSI
Miami episode Habeas Corpse and that was produced by former Stones engineer
Chris Kimsey: on screen there is a nice shot of a re-worked Decca single label.
This is a nice compilation of Taylor
s recent activities which fans hope could be expanded properly in the near
future.
